The Complete Registration Process
Register Now in 5 Easy Steps!
​
Please do not begin the registration process until you can complete all 5 steps in one sitting.
Step 1 - Club Registration
Athlete Registration
​
To register for the upcoming summer season, click on the above Icon and follow the instructions. Also see FAQ #3 and FAQ #7.
​
Registration closes May 5, 2024 @11:59 pm. We encourage athletes who are playing school spring sports to register before our registration deadline. Our first practice will be on May 28, 2024.
Step 3 - BAND App Account
​
The BAND app is how our team will communicate. The team manager or head coach will send text announcements and reminders to both athletes and parents.
Click here to learn how to establish your account. You may also click on the above Icon to view the onboarding guide that explains all of the app's features.
​
Once the athlete's parent/guardian completes steps 1 and 2 above, please immediately complete this step (but only if you don't currently have a BAND app account for Spike Up Athletics) so that you don't miss important EARLY communications. You'll also be able to check to the app to get caught up on any previous information already communicated prior to you or your athlete registering.
​
For safety reasons, please do not allow athletes younger than 13 years old to create their own BAND account. We will monitor the BAND app to remove all users who are not 13 or older.
Step 4 - Athlete Uniform Order (Mandatory)
Competition and Travel Uniforms
​
Because Spike Up Athletics is a competitive track and field club, it's important that our athletes looks like a team and represents our club in the best light possible. As a result, we require two uniforms: (1) a competition uniform, and (2) a travel uniform. For both our fall/winter and summer outdoor season, the competition uniforms will be the same, and we will loan the athlete a competition uniform provided we have one available to loan. However, our travel uniforms will be different for each of our seasons due to seasonal temperature differences. Click on the above icon to acknowledge understanding of our uniform and loaner uniform policies.
At some point prior to the start of practices, Spike Up Athletics' administration will email the athlete and his or her parents information on how to obtain a loaner competition uniform (if available) and order the appropriate travel uniform. Athletes will need both a competition uniform and a travel uniform & backpack. See FAQ #7 for a breakdown of uniform costs.
Step 5 - Affiliation Memberships
USATF and AAU Affiliation Memberships
​
Click on each of the above Icons to find instructions for obtaining the athlete's new club affiliation membership or to renew a membership from a previous season or competition year.
​
UNITL FURTHER NOTICE, ONLY COMPLETE THE USATF MEMBERSHIP. SHOULD WE ADD ANY AAU MEETS TO OUR COMPETITION SCHEDULE, WE WILL INSTRUCT YOU TO PURCHASE AN AAU MEMBERSHIP AT THAT TIME.
Athletes cannot compete in USATF or AAU sanctioned events under the Spike Up Athletics name without these memberships. Total cost of youth memberships $52 ($30 USATF and $22 AAU). Total cost of adult athlete memberships $90.00 ($55 USATF and $35 AAU). Total cost for non-competing adults $112.00 ($55 USATF and $57 AAU).
